Live video sessions

Get paid to teach what you already know

Kindlio is for real people teaching one another over video. Set your own price and keep all of it — no studio, no course to record, no audience to build. Just one person who wants to learn what you know.

Three steps to your first session

1

Post the skill

Say what you can teach and who it's for. A few sentences is plenty — beginners just want to know they're welcome.

2

Accept a request

When someone asks, you pick the time and paste your own video link — Zoom, Meet, or FaceTime. Both of you see it.

3

Teach and get reviewed

Hop on the call and share what you know. A good review makes the next person far more likely to book you.

How live sessions work

You bring the video link — we handle the rest

Kindlio doesn't run the call itself. You use a video app you already have, paste the link when you accept a request, and only your student can see it. Nothing to install, nothing extra to pay for.

  1. 1. Agree on a time

    A request comes in with what they want to learn. Message back and settle on a day and time that suits you both.

  2. 2. Create your link

    Open Google Meet, Zoom, or FaceTime and make a meeting link. It takes about thirty seconds.

  3. 3. Paste it in Kindlio

    Hit Accept on the request and paste the link. It shows up on your student's dashboard — and only theirs.

Which app should I use?

Google Meet

Free

Go to meet.google.com, click New meeting, then Create a meeting for later. Copy the link.

Up to 60 minutes with three or more people; one-on-one runs much longer.

Zoom

Free plan available

In Zoom, click Schedule, pick a time, then copy the invite link.

40-minute cap on the free plan — fine for a first lesson.

FaceTime

Free

On iPhone or Mac open FaceTime, tap Create Link, then copy it. Works for Android too through a browser.

No time limit.

A few things worth knowing

  • Test your camera and sound a few minutes early — it saves the awkward first five minutes.
  • Keep the conversation in Kindlio until the session. Never share your home address or bank details.
  • If plans change, either of you can cancel any time. There's no fee and no penalty.

Charge, swap, or give it away

You choose per skill, and you can change your mind any time.

Set a price

Name your rate. Learners pay you directly — Kindlio takes nothing from your sessions.

Skill swap

Trade a session of what you know for what you want to learn.

Free

Teach because you enjoy it. A gift to the community.

Tips welcome

Free to join, and a thank-you tip is arranged directly between you.

When do I actually get paid?

  1. 1You set your rate on the listing, so the learner knows the price before they ask.
  2. 2They send a request. You accept only if the time works for you.
  3. 3You agree how they'll pay you — the two of you settle that in the message thread.
  4. 4The learner pays you directly, so the money is yours the moment they send it. There's no waiting period and Kindlio takes no cut of your session.
  5. 5If either of you cancels, nothing is owed. Refunds are between you and the learner.

Two things that get you booked faster

Add a 30-second intro video

Record a friendly hello on your phone, upload it to YouTube, Vimeo, or Loom, and paste the link on your profile. Seeing your face is the fastest way for someone to trust you.

Offer a free 15-minute intro chat

A short no-pressure video hello before anyone commits. Tick the box on your listing and it shows as a badge everywhere your skill appears.

Your star rating and review count show on every listing once learners start leaving feedback.

You don't need to be an expert

  • If you're a few steps ahead of someone, you can help them.
  • Sessions are as short as you like — 20 minutes counts.
  • You approve every request, so you're never obligated.
  • Everything happens over video, so you never share your address.
